Dear Worried: Most types of mold are actually harmless and can be removed with a very dilute solution of fungicide which is harmless to humans and animals. The real issue is to find the source of the mold, since mold will only form and exist in the presence of high humidity and warmth.

Your best bet is to retain a qualified remediation company to assist you in performing the work DO NOT ATTEMPT TO USE CLORIOX aAND DO IT YOURSELF!!! The fumes are harmful and toxic.

Then, after you've corrected the mold, contacty an experienced Attorney to assist you in your claims againsty your insurer for bad faith!

Good luck and god bless! J. Norman Stark, Attorney / Architect Emeritus (216) 531-5310 x7100.
